Chapter 846: What Benefits?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“? Lying? Hoho,” Wu Hai was like a child. The mont he heard people questioning him, he started unleashing his temper. His “hoho” was completely laced with contempt.

“Explain then. Why are they clouds?” questioned the custor when he saw Wu Hai falling for reverse psychology.

One could not bla the custors for doubting Wu Hai. After all, Yuan Zhou was using his kitchen knife to sculpt curved lines again and again, and they did not look like clouds at all.

At tis, Yuan Zhou would finish a curved line in one go, and at tis, he would pause in between.

If one claid that he was sculpting a continuous mountain range, it would be more believable. Since when had clouds existed in lines?

“Isn’t that easy?” Wu Hai said, seemingly trying to ask if the custors were blind.

“Look at that line, the way it shifts, isn’t it similar to the tiny clumps of clouds during spring? The curve in the middle part of it is smoother, looking like the thick curtain of clouds during winter, and the thin lines hiding amidst the thick lines, aren’t those the commonly seen layers upon layers of clouds?” Wu Hai pointed at the lines Yuan Zhou was sculpting and said.

“My personal favorite is the second ice block. The lines seed to resemble sothing yet do not resemble sothing at the sa ti, like both a dog and a cat, but unfortunately, the artistic conception is sowhat lacking from this piece as it feels like he tried too hard,” Wu Hai continued.

When everyone gazed at the ice blocks while listening to Wu Hai, they reached the sa conclusion.

Perhaps what they saw was completely different than what Wu Hai saw? What in the world was this? Dog? Cat? If a dog or a cat was reduced into a line, how was it still a dog or a cat?

“You are bluffing. It’s just a line. How is it as graceful as a cloud?” questioned a custor.

“Shaless Wu is now a liar as well?”

Ling Hong would never give up on a chance to berate Wu Hai, “You trust him? How naive.”

“All of you are too lacking in terms of art,” Wu Hai said with contempt.

“It will look like a cloud if you imagine it,” Wu Hai said righteously. “Painting and sculpting are the sa where one’s imagination is extrely important. I rember you co from an art school, right? Without an ounce of imagination within you, what are you doing attending art school?”

That’s right, Wu Hai was talking about that custor who had learned painting before. He imdiately felt lacking in confidence when he heard Wu Hai’s words.

“Oh, now that you ntioned it, they do look like clouds. Look, for example, this particular line is disordered and in a ss, looking like the clouds hovering freely up in the sky.”

“Yes, that seems about right. If this is a mountain, it would have so sort of consistency to it. But if they are clouds, then it makes sense to be such a ss. They are even giving off the feeling of clouds,” said a different custor who had learned painting before as well.

And with more and more people agreeing to this, the other custors started agreeing as well. More importantly, Wu Hai was definitely an authority in terms of painting. And it was the habit of humans everywhere to trust in a person of authority.

“Shaless Wu is indeed worthy of being a painter. His skills are proven,” the custors started praising Wu Hai.

“That is only natural,” Wu Hai accepted the praise.

It did not matter that Wu Hai was feeling rather smug there. To the side, Yuan Zhou had just finished sculpting on an ice block. This practice session had still failed to satisfy him as well. he seed distressed as if he kept failing, he would not be able to use this trump card during the competition.

The custors that were still doubting Wu Hai started asking Yuan Zhou the mont they saw him stopping.

“Boss Yuan, are you sculpting clouds, clouds that looked like cat and dog?” asked a custor.

“You can actually see that I’m sculpting clouds?” Yuan Zhou looked at his knife doubtfully before looking at the ice block before him.

On the completely square ice block, nurous lines were sculpted. So were thin and so were thick. So were curved while so were straight. At a single glance, it looked like a kid scrawling. But when one studied it in detail, one would be able to see that it seed to follow a certain rule, emitting a sense of beauty in a disorderly fashion.

“They can even see that? They are surprisingly good,” Yuan Zhou muttered.

This ice block and the ice blocks yesterday had indeed been used to sculpt clouds. This was the trump card Yuan Zhou had prepared against Yang Shuxin.

Yuan Zhou’s trump card was the cloud dragon. If the Nine Dragon Sculpture was so sort of symbol for ice sculptors, the Nine Cloud Dragon Lines was a sculpture of legendary status.

In this sculpture, the clouds were extrely important. In fact, the clouds would decide if the sculpture was a failure or a success.

If Yang Shuxin found out what Yuan Zhou was trying to do, he would probably be extrely shocked. At present age, most ice sculptors were only able to reach the level of sculpting soaring dragon or ascending dragon.

Cloud dragon was a mixture of those two, seemingly soaring yet ascending at the sa ti. Of course, there were still people sculpting clouds and dragons nowadays, but those were rely dragons on clouds, instead of the cloud dragon that was a combination of two.

In the Book of Changes, it was ntioned that the cloud was akin to a dragon, while the wind was akin to a tiger. From this, one could see the subtle connection between a cloud and a dragon.

And to achieve the feeling of clouds, these lines were crucial. This was also why Yuan Zhou had been sculpting the lines non stop.

Unfortunately, Yuan Zhou was extrely dissatisfied with these lines. As far as he was concerned, these lines were too try-hard, and was not as natural and graceful as the clouds in the sky.

“How did you find out?” Yuan Zhou asked.

“They are really clouds?” The man looked at Wu Hai before looking at Yuan Zhou again, “So the cloud that looks both like a cat and a dog really exists?”

Yuan Zhou did not answer, but the look in his eyes was sufficient to convey the answer.

In stupefaction, the man answered, “Shaless Wu was the one who told . He saw through it with a single glance.”

“Recognizing clouds are way too simple. After all, I am a painter,” Wu Hai interrupted smugly.

“Painting? Yes! Painting!” Yuan Zhou seed to have figured sothing out. In terms of natural arts, Wu Hai had a deep understanding. It would be a waste for him to not make use of Wu Hai.

Yuan Zhou started putting his stuff away, clearly not intending to continue.

“Huh? Is it ti to prepare lunch?” The custors were paying attention to everything Yuan Zhou was doing.

“I doubt so? It’s only ten in the morning,” said soone after looking at his watch.

“Yeah, I haven’t even fild anything yet today,” said the mischievous child resentfully. If this continued, he would not have sufficient funds to conquer the “howork-for-hire” market of the grade two students.

“I don’t know. But I suppose he is done sculpting for the day and will continue tomorrow,” said a custor who was leaving.

“I have never seen people sculpting clouds like this. I wonder if I can see a complete cloud tomorrow,” said the custor who questioned Wu Hai earlier.

So custors prepared to leave, while so continued waiting, scared that Yuan Zhou would continue sculpting again. The child was among those staying.

However, Yuan Zhou moved quickly and in a short while, the area was emptied. And thus, everyone left.

The spectators left, but Wu Hai stayed. Lazily, he stood there, perhaps still reveling in the feeling of having been praised earlier.

After all, this was the first ti Wu Hai had been praised for his intelligence. This was very rare.
